Provided are new functionalized nitrile rubbers, which may optionally also be in partially or wholly hydrogenated form, and also a process for preparing them by metathesis of nitrile rubbers in the presence of a metathesis catalyst and at least one functionalized allyl compound. The new functionalized nitrile rubbers are suitable for producing vulcanizable mixtures and allow the production of vulcanizates having very stable networks. Also made possible, in particular, is the synthesis of block copolymers.

Functionalized nitrile rubbers and the production thereof

A process of degrading nitrile rubbers comprises subjecting them to a metathesis reaction in the presence of specific catalysts with increased activity.

Process for degrading nitrile rubbers in the presence of catalysts having an increased activity

Provided are new partially hydrogenated nitrile rubbers which are distinguished by a specific ratio of viscosity to molecular weight, and also vulcanizable mixtures and vulcanizates based on said rubbers, and also the associated preparation processes. The partially hydrogenated nitrile rubbers lead to compounded formulations having advantageous processing properties in conjunction with excellent vulcanizate properties.

Partially hydrogenated nitrile rubbers

New catalyst systems for metathesis reactions, in particular for the metathesis of nitrile rubber, are provided.

Process for reacting chemical compounds in the presence of catalyst systems

A novel process for reducing the molecular weight of nitrile rubber in the presence of specific catalyst systems containing the metathesis catalyst and also a specific addition of fluorine-containing boron compounds is provided.

Catalyst systems and their use for metathesis reactions

Catalysts for metathesis reactions, in particular for the metathesis of nitrile rubber, are provided.

Catalysts for metathesis reactions

A novel process for the metathetic degradation of nitrile rubbers is provided which uses specific transition metal complex catalysts showing an increased activity.

Metathesis of nitrile rubbers in the presence of transition metal complex catalysts

The metathetic degradation of nitrile rubber can be improved by use of a combination of metal-carbene complex catalysts with specific transition metal additives.

Process for the metathetic degradation of nitrile rubber

Novel catalyst systems for metathesis reactions, in particular for the metathesis of nitrile rubber, which contain a specific salt additive in addition to the metathesis catalyst are provided.

An improved process for the metathetic degradation of nitrile rubber using catalyst systems comprising the catalyst and also a phosphane or diphosphane is provided.

Process for the metathetic degradation of nitrile rubbers

The invention provides low molecular weight or polymeric organic materials in which at least one hydrogen atom is replaced by a group of the formula (A) where R is alkyl group, alkoxyalkyl group, alkoxy group, thioalkoxy group, aryl group or alkenyl group, in each of which one or more hydrogen atoms may be replaced and one or more nonadjacent carbon atoms may be replaced.

Materials that can be structured, method for producing the same and their use

A novel process for the degradation of nitrile rubber by metathesis using ruthenium- or osmium-based catalysts which have both a substituted or unsubstituted imidazolidine ligand and a carbene ligand bearing a phosphonium radical is provided.
